Using the Brother printer driverA Printer Driver is software that translates data from the format used by a computer into the format required by a particular printer, using a printer command language or page description language.

The printer drivers are on the CD-ROM we have supplied. Install the drivers first by following the Quick Setup Guide. Also, the latest printer driver can be downloaded from the Brother Solutions Center at:

Windows® PrintingThe dedicated printer driver and TrueType™ compatible fonts for Microsoft® Windows® 98/98SE/Me/2000 Professional/XP and Windows NT® workstation 4.0 are available on the CD-ROM supplied with your machine. You can install them easily into your Windows® system using our installer program. The driver supports our unique compression mode to enhance printing speed in Windows® applications, and allows you to set various printer settings, including economy printing mode and custom paper size.

Popular Printer Emulation SupportThe machine supports HP LaserJet (PCL level 6) and BR-Script 3 (PostScript® 3™) printer emulation mode. If you use DOS application software, you can use HP LaserJet (PCL level 6) and BR-Script 3 (PostScript® 3™) emulation mode for printer operations.

USING THE MACHINE AS A PRINTER 1 - 2

How to print your documentWhen the machine receives data from your computer, it begins printing by picking up paper from the paper tray. The paper tray can feed many types of paper and envelopes.

1 From your computer select the Print command.If your computer is also connected to any other printers, select Brother MFC-XXXX or DCP-XXXX (USB) Printer (Where XXXX is your model name) as your printer driver from the Print or Print Settings menu in your software application, and then click on OK to begin printing.

2 Your computer sends a print command and data to the machine.

3 The LED blinks in yellow and the machine starts to print.

If your application software does not support your custom paper size, select the next largest paper size.

Then adjust the print area by changing the right and left margins in your application software.

You can select the paper size and orientation in your application software.

1 - 3 USING THE MACHINE AS A PRINTER

Simultaneous printing and faxingYour machine can print from your computer while scanning the document into the computer, or while sending/receiving a fax in memory. (MFC-8440, MFC-8640D, MFC-8840D and MFC-8840DN only) Fax sending will not be stopped during PC printing.

Two-sided printing (Duplex Printing)

The supplied printer driver supports duplex printing. (For more information, see Duplex Printing on page 2-8.)

Automatic Duplex Printing(For MFC-8640D, MFC-8840D, MFC-8840DN and DCP-8045D)In this mode, the machine prints on both sides of A4, Letter or Legal paper automatically.

1 Open the Properties dialog box in the printer driver.

2 Select Duplex Printing mode in the Advanced tab, make sure that ‘Use Duplex Unit’ has been selected, and then click the OK button. (See Duplex Printing on page 2-8.) The printer will print on both sides of the paper automatically.

■ When you select Use Duplex Unit, HQ 1200 is not available.

■ If you also want to use Duplex Printing for fax and copy operations, see To use Automatic Duplexing for fax, copy and print operations (For MFC-8640D, MFC-8840D, MFC-8840DN and DCP-8045D) in the User’s Guide.

USING THE MACHINE AS A PRINTER 1 - 4

Manual Duplex PrintingThe machine prints all the even-numbered pages on one side of the paper first. Then, the Windows® driver instructs you (with a pop-up message) to reinsert the paper. Before reinserting the paper, straighten it well, or you may get a paper jam. Very thin or very thick paper is not recommended.

We recommend 20 to 24 lb (75 to 90 g/m2) paper.

Face-down output tray

The machine ejects paper with printed surfaces face down into the output tray in the front of the machine. Unfold the support flap to support the printed pages.

When printing transparencies, remove each one from the support flap after it exits the machine.

Viewing items

ScanSoft® PaperPort® 9.0SE provides several ways to view items:

Desktop View displays a thumbnail (a small graphic that represents each item in a Desktop or folder).

Items in the selected folder appear on the PaperPort® 9.0SE Desktop. You can see PaperPort® 9.0SE items (MAX files) and non-PaperPort® 9.0SE items (files created using other applications).

Non-PaperPort® 9.0SE items include an icon that indicates the application that was used to create the item; a non-PaperPort® 9.0SE item is represented by a small rectangular thumbnail and not an actual image.

Page View displays a close-up of a single page. You can open a PaperPort® 9.0SE item by double-clicking on it.

As long as you have the appropriate application on your computer to display it, you can also double-click a non-PaperPort® 9.0SE item to open it.

Desktop View displays items as thumbnails

Page View displays each itemas a full page

Organizing your items in folders

PaperPort® 9.0SE has an easy-to-use filing system for organizing your items. The filing system consists of folders and items that you select to view in Desktop View. An item can be a PaperPort® 9.0SE item or a non-PaperPort® 9.0SE item:

■ Folders are arranged in a “tree” structure in the Folder View.You use this section to select folders and view their items in Desktop View.

■ You can simply drag and drop an item onto a folder.When the folder is highlighted, release the mouse button and the item is stored in that folder.

■ Folders can be “nested”—that is, stored in other folders.

■ When you double-click a folder, its items (both PaperPort® 9.0SE MAX files and non PaperPort® 9.0SE files) appear on the Desktop.

■ You can also use Windows® Explorer to manage the folders and items shown in Desktop View.

Quick links to other applications

ScanSoft® PaperPort® 9.0SE automatically recognizes many other applications on your computer and creates a “working link” to them.

The Send To Bar at the bottom of the Desktop view shows icons of those linked applications.

To use a link, drag an item onto one of the icons to start the application represented by the icon. A typical use of the Send To Bar is to select an item and then fax it.

This sample Send To Bar shows several applications with links to PaperPort® 9.0SE.

If PaperPort® 9.0SE does not automatically recognize one of the applications on your computer, you can manually create a link using the New Program Link... command. (See PaperPort® 9.0SE in the Documentation section on the CD-ROM for more information about creating new links.)

HOW TO SCAN USING WINDOWS® 3 - 23

ScanSoft® OmniPage® OCR lets you convert image text into text you can edit

ScanSoft® OmniPage® OCR is installed automatically with PaperPort® 9.0SE when you install MFL-Pro Suite on your computer.

ScanSoft® PaperPort® 9.0SE can quickly convert the text on a ScanSoft® PaperPort® 9.0SE item (which is really just a picture of the text) into text that you can edit with a word processing application.

PaperPort® 9.0SE uses the optical character recognition application ScanSoft® OmniPage®, which comes with PaperPort® 9.0SE

—OR—

PaperPort® 9.0SE can use your preferred OCR application if it is already on your computer. You can convert the entire item, or by using the Copy Text command, you can select only a portion of the text to convert.

Dragging an item onto a word-processing link icon starts PaperPort® 9.0SE’s built-in OCR application, or you can use your own OCR application.

You can Import items from other applications

In addition to scanning items, you can bring items into PaperPort® 9.0SE in a variety of ways and convert them to PaperPort® 9.0SE (MAX) files in several different ways:

■ Print to the Desktop View from another application, such as Microsoft® Excel.

■ Import files saved in other file formats, such as Windows® Bitmap (BMP) or Tagged Image File Format (TIFF).

Color TypeBlack & White—Set the image type to Black and White for text or line art. For photographic images, set the image type to Gray (Error diffusion) or True Gray.

Gray (Error Diffusion)—is used for documents with photographic images or graphics. (Error Diffusion is a method for creating simulated gray images by placing black dots instead of the true gray dots in a specific matrix instead of true gray dots.)

True Gray—is used for documents with photographic images or graphics. This mode is more exact because it uses up to 256 shades of gray. It requires the most memory and takes the longest transfer time.

Colors—Choose either 8-bit Color, which scans up to 8-bit Color or 24-bit Color which scans up to 16.8 million colors. Although using 24-bit Color creates an image with the most accurate colors, the image file will be about three times larger than a file created with 8-bit Color.

Business Card SizeTo scan business cards, select the Business Card size (90 × 60 mm) and place the business card at the center of scanner glass.

When you are scanning photographs or other images to use in a word processor or other graphics application, it is a good idea to try different settings for the Contrast, Mode and Resolution to determine which settings look the best.

7 - 26 USING YOUR MACHINE WITH A MACINTOSH®

Adjusting the ImageBrightnessAdjust the Brightness setting to get the best image. The Brother TWAIN Scanner driver offers 100 Brightness levels (-50 to 50). The default value is 0, representing an ‘average’ setting.

You can set the Brightness level by dragging the slide bar to the right to lighten the image or to the left to darken the image. You can also type a value in the box to set the level. Click OK.

If the scanned image is too light, set a lower Brightness level and scan the image again.

If the image is too dark, set a higher Brightness level and scan the image again.

ContrastYou can only adjust the Contrast level when you have selected one of the Gray Scale settings, it is not available when you have selected Black & White as the selected Color Type.

Increasing the Contrast level (by dragging the slide bar to the right) emphasizes dark and light areas of the image, while reducing the Contrast level (by dragging the slide bar to the left) reveals more detail in the gray areas. Instead of using the slide bar, you can type a value in the box to set the Contrast. Click OK.
